作词 : Traditional As I walked out one morning In the springtime of the year I overheard a sailor boy Likewise a lady fair They sang a song together Made the valleys for to ring While the birds on the spray in the meadows gay Proclaimed the lovely spring Said Willy unto NancyOh we soon must sail away For its lovely on the water To hear the music play For our Queen she do want seamen So I will not stay on shore I will brave the wars for my country Where the blund'ring cannons roar Poor Nancy fell and fainted But soon he brought her to For it's there they kissed and there embraced And took a fond adieu Come change your ring with me my love For we may meet once more But there's one above that will guard you love Where the blund'ring cannons roar For pounds it is our bounty And that must do for thee But to help the aged parents While I am on the sea For Tower Hill is crowded With mother's weeping sore For their sons are gone to face the war Where the blundering cannons roar
